Trump’s advisor Kellyann Conway has proven time and again that she is willing to say and do whatever to keep her position in the Trump Whitehouse.
There are many examples of the lows Kellyanne has stooped to, but Wednesday when she defended Trump’s continuous use of the racist term, “Kung-flu”, to describe Coronavirus, well, that just shows her willingness to stay in the gutters.
It wasn’t that long ago when an Asian-American reporter pointed out that someone in the Whitehouse was using the racist term. Kellyanne agreed that it “highly offensive”, and demanded to know who in the administration the term was associated to.
“Of course it’s wrong,” Conway said at the time. “That’s highly offensive, so you should tell us all who it is.”
That was then. Now that it is clear Trump is the source of the “highly offensive” language in the Whitehouse, Kellyanne has changed. When asked to explain why Trump is still using the language, Kellyanne argued;
“Excuse me, how do you know the way people, how do you know that people aren’t anticipating that or not connecting that? You don’t know that. While the president is saying it, he’s also saying this virus came from China. China is responsible… He said it’s called many different things, it’s called the Wuhan virus, the Chinese virus, and then he used another term.”
She just secured her position in this Whitehouse ’till November.
